Please come join us for a discussion about what Transition Towns in the bay area have been up to!! Thursday, February 6, 2014, 6:30 pm Transition Berkeley Presents: “In Transition 2.0”– A Film About the Creative Power of the Transition Movement Transition Berkeley invites you to come help us celebrate our 3rd anniversary! Please join us for a potluck supper at 6:30 followed by, In Transition 2.0 an inspirational film about the Transition Movement that gathers stories from ordinary people doing extraordinary things. We’ll learn what Transition Towns around the world are doing to change their local economies. You’ll hear about communities printing their own money, growing food everywhere, localizing their economies and setting up community power stations. It’s an idea that has gone viral, a social experiment that is about responding to uncertain times with solutions and optimism. In a world awash with gloom, here is a story of hope, ingenuity and the power of growing vegetables in unexpected places. After the film we’ll hear from Rebecca Newburn about actions Richmond Rivets is taking and from representatives from other bay area Transition groups. There will be opportunities to talk about the film and get involved in action projects in the community. We’re grateful for all the dedicated people we have met and green partners we have worked with in the last three years. We’ll make time during this evening to show our appreciation for the great folks who are working to create a healthier, greener, better community.
